Lyrics:

*guitar plays and birds in the background* (Verse 1) What you know about the running, the stretching The cars, the weapons The path, the journey The jewels, the learning The fear, the focus The aches, the pains The contact sparrin', the breaks, the sprains The trial and error, the ranks, and belts The spiritual growth, the science of breath The tests, the techniques The forms, the stances The flow, the rhythm, the internal answers The herbs, the healing, the quiet meditation The truths reveal through daily dedication The love for the art, the sweat on your shirt The mind, the body, and the spirit that work The feelings of failure, the hope to succeed The battles of questions like 'Should I smoke weed?' (Verse 2) The water, the thirst The cleansing, the blessings The flash of insights, the teachings, the lessons The grappling and locking, trapping and boxing The training and slacking The starting and stopping And stayin' committed, when your homies ain't with it The hours or practice after the class is finished The cause of your ignorance, flaws in your discipline Broken laws of nutrition, and pork and dishin' The vitamins and supplements Salads and ointments The kingships, pull joints in doctor appointments The dues, the pads, the wraps, the gloves The mouthpiece you left home, the taste of your own blood The hunger, the blocks The punches, the squats The crunches, the example you set for the youngsters The will, the skills, the kill or the hill The separation between what's fake and what's real The laws of physics, The class 'comradery' The vows of humility, the bow, the courtesy. *guitar plays* (Sample)
